I am fully prepared to be told IABU and maybe I am, but I was in Argos yesterday (that's not the unreasonable bit).
I was looking for a present for a 2-year-old girl and stumbled across this:
www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9248612.htm?cmpid=APPSOCIAL01
It says "suitable from birth". I kind of get the concept but is it just me that thinks it's inappropriate and stereotypical, and the wrong impression to give a little girl? Almost that it's all about the accessories and no baby is too young to be indoctrinated into the world of pink and fluffy.
I can't even put my finger on why it annoyed me so much, maybe it's the pinkness, but I am just uncomfortable with it.
Is there any logical reason why I should feel like this?

To think this is an inappropriate gift for a newborn baby girl?
